Vienna paint question

[Richcat]

I recently purchased a new 2022 Vienna and noticed the paint is cracking and falling off where the silicon joints on several spots around the exterior of the coach. Has anyone else have or seen this problem?

Contact Renegade’s warranty department and ask them. Don’t call - email is by far the best way to get a response, and attach pictures (not huge ones) and provide details. I usually get a response within a day.

As for your specific issue, I think I have something similar happening on my 2021 Valencia. Renegade’s warranty person said to apply a silicone to keep that area sealed and prevent the cracking from getting worse. I’m going to find silicone that color matches the paint so it shouldn’t be too obvious.

Our 21 Verona had/has terrible paint issues. Paint cracking along mostly all silicone seams, most of which was repaired at my local dealer. They blended/painted/cut/buffed all of it. I have had only two spots return which I was able to use touch up paint and repair myself. The real killer was I already had the coach ceramic coated and the painters buffed and burnt a lot of the sides where the repair was done. Anytime its cleaned up and the sun hits it the swirl marks are extremely bothersome. Plan to get it paint corrected here again soon once I can get it back into a garage full time.

I was told Renegade outsources all of their paintwork locally in IN and during Covid there was massive issues with the painters, amongst others. Not sure where the fallout was but it was pretty dissapointing to have paint issues on such an expensive coach.
